try: (commandline, ssh or similar) dig <domainname.com> SOA
prints eg. for "dig kapper.net SOA" ;; ANSWER SECTION: kapper.net. 1H IN SOA ns1.kapper.net. dns.kapper.net. ( 2001071421 ; serial 8H ; refresh 2H ; retry 3W ; expiry 1D ) ; minimum (and some more things) but this should get you on. as you don't like to screw - I guess there's no global-replace-timeconfig in SOA for all domains... sorry. but if you're willing to do it, try: [first backup - just in case] cp /etc/named/records /etc/named/records.bkup (this records file is where the gui stores all dns-settings in its own format) [then, depending on the number of domains] do a: grep -i soa /etc/named/records this prints out a list of entries containing soa-data for your dns. the special line that should always be displayed is: soa - - .... while all other lines look like: soa - domain.com .... the special line is the default-setting for new domains you create. then in all soa-lines you see the timeout-data displayed in seconds, so you should be able to easily figure out where your trouble-record is (if). then you're on your own (because I don't tend to write some sed-things here) and open /etc/named/records using vi or pico or similar and edit the lines you don't like - or simply stop before editing the file and go back to your webinterface and change the domains' SOA-records you'd like to be changed. hth hk On Thu, 02 May 2002 20:54:09 -0400, you wrote: >Okay, for someone who really doesn't like to screw with his RAQ server - >what would be the easiest way to see if one's site SOA records has some bad >entries, like time to live set at one minute?
